Chapter 208: Poisoning

In fact, it's funny to say that this day that only the two of them remember stems from an agreement between the two more than ten years ago.

The two of them had no guesses, and when they were young, they "made a private life" and agreed to get married when they grew up, but the two regarded the day they agreed to marry as a memorial day.

However, the two of them had two crosses on this anniversary, and in the third year, the Bai family had an accident, and the two never met again.

Although they can't meet, it's just that this day is remembered every year, but when they think of the uncertainty of the future, they still have regrets in their hearts when they think of their own fate.

"Over the years, I have remembered this day, but I can only ......live it alone" Zhao Ling smiled slightly, his smile mixed with a slight bitter taste, "And this miss can't be mentioned to anyone, no matter who it is, they will scoff at it and laugh at me, two little children, what kind of love and love you know!" Who told me to be precocious, who told me to miss you! ”

"Me too, I can only keep it in mind!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "In the first few years, I was looking forward to this day at any time, maybe after this day, you will come back to see me?" At the beginning, I was looking forward to it, and in the next few years, I don't want to come today, I hope I can forget today, only in this way will I not look forward to you from morning to night, so that I will not be disappointed again and again, and then despair! ”

She took a deep breath, looked at the guilt in Zhao Ling's eyes, and said, "This is also a clichΓ©, I hated you at the beginning, but I know that you are not having an easier time than me!" ”

She smiled and patted Zhao Ling's arm: "Fortunately, everything has passed, aren't we all okay now?" As the saying goes, if you don't die in a catastrophe, you will have a blessing, both of us are people who have really walked through hell, and I believe that our good days are still to come! I also believe that we still have a lifetime of time to be together! ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Ling took Jiang Xiaoyu's hand and kissed it gently, "We will be together for the rest of our lives!" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu for Zhao Ling, is not just a childhood obsession, but really give her emotions to her, so many years of longing and self-blame, regret not to get, love but can't suffer, in the child's heart took root in his heart, until it grew into a towering tree, those love and pity, has long been integrated into her blood, she is not only his sweetheart, but also a part of his life.

The two of them continued to walk forward, and in front of them came to a small courtyard surrounded by towering trees on all sides. These big trees shade the sky and the sun, and there is not a trace of moonlight, and this sense of closure makes this small place seem to be separated from the mortal dust. If there really is a heaven in this world, if there is really a place in this world that is far away from the troubles of mortals, it is probably here, even if it is only for a moment!

There was already a fire in the yard, and the lamb was roasting on the fire, and the aroma of the roast meat had reached the nose, and the oil was dripping on the flames, making a sizzling sound.

Zhao Ling led Jiang Xiaoyu to sit down by the fire, and after warming her hands a little, she covered her ears and said softly, "Is it frozen?" ”

"On the contrary, after taking Master's antidote, I am like a little fire man, and I don't know what cold is!" Jiang Xiaoyu wrinkled his nose and said.

At this moment, the distance between the two was very close, they could clearly see the slight beating flames in each other's eyes, and they could hear each other's breathing, and the two looked at each other's eyes like this, and neither of them looked away, as if they wanted to imprint each other in their hearts.

Zhao Ling's gaze gradually moved downward, skimming over her tall nose and staying on her red lips, he slowly approached, and at the moment when he was about to kiss him, an untimely belly scream sounded.

Jiang Xiaoyu sneered.

Zhao Ling said helplessly: "Hungry? ”

"Hmm!" Jiang Xiaoyu nodded.

Zhao Ling took out a knife, cut a piece of mutton and handed it to Jiang Xiaoyu, looking at the appearance of her mouth full of oil, she was quite satisfied in her heart, and said proudly: "This mutton is also roasted by me myself!" ”

"That's amazing!" Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

At this warm moment, Zhao Ling didn't know which tendon was wrong, and suddenly remembered something: "Didn't the second child give you a dagger on your birthday last time?" Let me see, how does it feel to cut lamb? ”

Jiang Xiaoyu glared at Zhao Ling in disgust: "That's used to kill people!" ”

Zhao Ling wiped the gem-inlaid knife in his hand with a hurried handkerchief, and said with a wicked smile: "Then how do you know that the knife in my hand has not killed anyone?" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu's movements stiffened, then turned his head and asked, "Are you serious?" ”

"Lie to you! Fool! Zhao Ling rubbed Jiang Xiaoyu's head, "Eat it!" ”

He took out another jar of wine: "Wouldn't it be a pity to have meat but no wine?" Taste it, twenty years of daughter red! ”

Jiang Xiaoyu smelled this mellow and thought, and looked at Zhao Ling suspiciously: "Are you trying to get me drunk?" ”

"You're getting worse and worse!" Zhao Ling knocked on Jiang Xiaoyu's head, "Say everything I think in my heart!" You drink first, how about I stroke the piano for you? ”

"Actually, the third sister of our family, others listen to recklessness on weekdays, but they are indeed accomplished in terms of music, at that time she invited her to call her the master of vocal music, and the most commonly mentioned person is you, saying that your guzheng attainments have reached the level of a master, and today I can listen to you personally stroke the qin, which is naturally a blessing for three lives!"

"Fool!" Zhao Ling smiled slightly, walked to the back of the guzheng that had been prepared a long time ago, sat down, and after a little audition, he began to play.

Jiang Xiaoyu was a little disappointed, he thought he would play a few rare tunes, but he didn't know that it was the easiest one to play, wasn't this what he learned when he was a child at the beginning of his life?

Holding her chin, she asked, "You really didn't start learning recently?" ”

"Don't feel familiar?"

"I think so!"

"When did you first listen to it?" Zhao Ling reminded.

Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly understood the intention of this guy, the first time she heard this song, it was when she was learning to dance, at that time it was the first dance in her life that her mother taught her, and it was the only one she could dance.

"I don't remember!" Jiang Xiaoyu pretended to be stupid.

"That dance was originally for me to learn, but now that I have this opportunity, why don't you show it to me again? Just show me alone! Zhao Ling said seductively, his eyes deep but seductive.

Jiang Xiaoyu bit his lip, and with a determination to let go, he got up and said, "Jump, jump!" ”

I learned that dance more than ten years ago, and I have never danced it all these years, and I have forgotten it for a long time, but I just heard the sound of his piano, as if I remembered it.

She danced gently with the melody of the music, her movements were very rusty, and she was not smooth, just dancing casually, Zhao Ling stared at her dancing posture tightly, the eyes of the two met from time to time, and the corners of her mouth became larger and larger.

There is obviously no moonlight here, and when he recalled today's scene many years later, Zhao Ling always felt that today's moonlight was very beautiful, and his sweetheart danced gently in the moonlight, like a fairy, all the way to his heart.

Jiang Xiaoyu's dance was over, but Zhao Ling's piano sound continued, and he changed a tune.

Although Jiang Xiaoyu didn't know much about the rhythm, he still heard that this song was "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix".

Neither of them spoke, and perhaps the rhythm of music could better convey the mood of the two at this time.

At this moment, Yang Xing suddenly broke in, looked at the scene inside, and then reacted, what was the prince going to do, he didn't want to disturb the two of them at this warm moment, but the situation was very urgent, and the prince had to know!

"What's wrong?" Zhao Ling frowned and asked, Yang Xing had a calm temperament, if it hadn't happened something that even he couldn't solve, he wouldn't have broken in.

"The prince is poisoned!" Yang Xing said, "The specific situation is still unclear! ”

"What!" Zhao Ling was startled and hurriedly got up, "How could my father be poisoned?" ”

"The specific situation is not very clear now, but some subordinates of the royal palace have come to inform about this!" Yang Xing said.

"Let's go back to Beijing quickly!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Hurry up and hurry back now!" ”

The three of them hurried back to the capital, and learned on the way that His Majesty had recruited the King of Chu into the palace tonight, and after the two chatted for a while, they had a meal together, but they did not expect that the King of Chu was suddenly poisoned and fainted, and His Majesty immediately called the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment, but the current life and death situation is still unclear.

Jiang Xiaoyu said a little anxiously: "It's really unfortunate, Master is not in the capital right now!" ”

The three of them entered the palace directly, and the guards took the three of them to the palace where the king of Chu was now housed.

Outside the dormitory, not only His Majesty, but also the Queen Mother, the Empress, Qi Guifei and others were waiting, and because the back and forth were delayed, at this moment, the imperial doctor inside had already completed the diagnosis and treatment for the King of Chu, and Emperor Zhou was inquiring about the situation.

Zhao Ling hurriedly stepped forward, and before he could salute a few nobles in the palace, he asked, "Imperial Doctor, how is my father's condition?" ”

"Xia Guan has tried his best, although he has tried his best to clean up all the remaining poison, but the power of this poison is too much, the king of Chu is not out of danger now, whether he can wake up or not, it will be clear tomorrow morning!" The imperial doctor clenched his fists and said.

Zhao Ling shook his head, turned around and clenched his fists and asked, "Your Majesty, what the hell is going on?" ”

Emperor Zhou's face was gloomy, he closed his eyes and took a breath and said, "Your father is suffering for me!" ”

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"

"This afternoon, as soon as I finished discussing with your father, the imperial dining room brought some snacks, because your father likes to eat water chestnut cakes the most, and he likes to joke with me since he was a child, so he snatched the piece of my hand, I didn't expect it......" He opened his eyes, his eyes were full of cold murderous aura, "If it weren't for him, I'm afraid it would be me lying inside!" ”

"Your Majesty means that someone wants to kill the king?" Zhao Ling asked coldly.

And the face of the Queen Mother on the side at this moment can only be described by Tie Qing: "Check! This matter must be investigated to the end! Killing the king, someone dares to commit such a big crime of punishing the nine clans, and I really don't put my Zhao family in my eyes! ”
